SNS X-Gels

I started dosing 1g of ARA (4 caps) PWO for the past week. I haven't noticed the DOM's that people mention, should I increase my dose? This might sound like a stupid question but is the effectiveness of ARA in my body correlated with DOMs? I'm taking it first thing upon waking up with 1 scoop of SAN Fierce Dom, 1 scoop of Hemavol, and 2g ALCAR. I also do not take cissus or an anti inflammatory supplements.

Appreciate any help, thanks!

EDIT: Also forgot to mention it is my first time running this product.

Do you take any fish oil at all?. I'd give it another week at least before raising the dosage. I really wish I had more experience to help you with this. Unfortunately I'm unable to take X-gels because of my IBS. Let me get you some better help in here.

Do you eat a meal prior to taking your supplements/working out? (If so this could be reducing your absorption of ArA and how much of it makes it to your muscles)

Are you noticing increased vasodilation at all so far?

What's your normal fat intake look like?

-I take it first thing waking up (last meal probably around 8 hours ago)
-My bf is around 15% so I don't notice much vasodilation... I get some great pumps, however.
-Currently bulking so my fat intake is around 80g's a day.

Seems like you're good to go. Give it more time to see if you end up having any DOMS, but like you suggested, perhaps you should be happy you don't haha.

I ran 1.5 grams for pre-WO for 2 months. Actually I started at 1g then went to 1.25g the next week, then 1.5g then on. You'll know when it kicks in. Challenge yourself week to week by adding weight to each set. One week you'll look up and instead of adding 5lbs or 10lbs to a lift you might add 20lbs depending on the body part. I didn't really get DOMs that much unless it was leg day, but my DOMs were very delayed.

My leg days are usually on the backend of the week (Friday) and I wouldn't feel anything till like Monday or Tuesday sometimes. My joints did get dry, but that was at the very very end, almost the last 2 weeks or so.

i am on 1750mg ArA (1.5g from xfactor and 250mg from vaskular). I have been using vaskular couple of weeks and know how my body respond on it but after adding ArA , pumps have been so NICE!!!! I am not sure but i feel like my BP has increased. From ArA? I dont know

Did you measure your blood pressure or are you just going off of a "feel"?
